1Corinthians 14
King James Version Help
14Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy.G1377G26G1161G2206G4152G1161G3123G2443G4395
2For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.G1063G2980G1100G2980G3756G444G235G2316G1063G3762G191G1161G4151G2980G3466
3But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.G1161G4395G2980G444G3619G2532G3874G2532G3889
4He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.G2980G1100G3618G1438G1161G4395G3618G1577
5I would that ye all spake with tongues but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.G1161G2309G5209G3956G2980G1100G1161G3123G2443G4395G1063G3187G4395G2228G2980G1100G1622G1508G1329G2443G1577G2983G3619
6Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine?G1161G3570G80G1437G2064G4314G5209G2980G1100G5101G5623G5209G3362G2980G5213G2228G1722G602G2228G1722G1108G2228G1722G4394G2228G1722G1322
7And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?G3676G895G1325G5456G1535G836G1535G2788G3362G1325G1293G5353G4459G1097G832G2228G2789
8For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?G1063G2532G1437G4536G1325G82G5456G5101G3903G1519G4171
9So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye shall speak into the air.G3779G2532G5210G3362G1325G1223G1100G3056G2154G4459G1097G2980G1063G2071G2980G1519G109
10There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification.G1487G2076G5177G5118G1085G5456G1722G2889G2532G3762G880G846
11Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh shall be a barbarian unto me.G3767G3362G1492G3362G1411G5456G2071G2980G915G2532G2980G915G1722G1698
12Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church.G2532G3779G5210G1893G2075G2207G4151G2212G2443G4052G4314G3619G1577
13Wherefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray that he may interpret.G1355G2980G1100G4336G2443G1329
14For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.G1063G1437G4336G1100G3450G4151G4336G1161G3450G3563G2076G175
15What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.G5101G2076G3767G4336G4151G1161G4336G3563G2532G5567G4151G1161G5567G3563G2532
16Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest?G1893G1437G2127G4151G4459G378G5117G2399G2046G281G1909G4674G2169G1894G1492G3756G5101G3004
17For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.G1063G4771G3303G2168G2573G235G2087G3618G3756G3618
18I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:G2168G3450G2316G2980G1100G3123G5216G3956
19Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.G235G1722G1577G2309G2980G4002G3056G1223G3450G3563G2443G2727G243G2532G2228G3463G3056G1722G1100
20Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.G80G1096G3361G3813G5424G235G2549G3515G1161G5424G1096G5046
21In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the LORD.G1722G3551G1125G3754G1722G2084G2532G1722G2087G5491G2980G5129G2992G2532G3779G1522G3761G1522G3450G3004G2962
22Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe.G5620G1100G1526G1519G4592G3756G4100G235G571G1161G4394G3756G571G235G4100
23If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?G1437G3767G3650G1577G4905G1909G846G2532G3956G2980G1100G1161G1525G2399G2228G571G2046G3756G2046G3754G3105
24But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all:G1161G1437G3956G4395G1161G1525G5100G571G2228G2399G1651G5259G3956G350G5259G3956
25And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth.G2532G3779G1096G2927G846G2588G1096G5318G2532G3779G4098G1909G4383G4352G2316G518G3754G2316G2076G1722G5213G3689
26How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.G5101G2076G3767G80G3752G4905G1538G5216G2192G5568G2192G1322G2192G1100G2192G602G2192G2058G1096G3956G1096G4314G3619
27If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.G1535G5100G2980G1100G2596G1417G2228G4118G5140G2532G303G3313G2532G1329G1520G1329
28But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.G1161G3362G5600G3362G1328G4601G1722G1577G1161G2980G1438G2532G2316
29Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.G1161G2980G4396G2980G1417G2228G5140G2532G1252G243G1252
30If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.G1161G1437G601G243G2521G4601G4413G4601
31For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.G1063G1410G3956G4395G2596G1520G2443G3956G3129G2532G3956G3870
32And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.G2532G4151G4396G5293G4396
33For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.G1063G2316G2076G3756G181G235G1515G5613G1722G3956G1577G40
34Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law.G4601G5216G1135G4601G1722G1577G1063G2010G3756G2010G846G2980G235G5293G2531G2532G3004G3551
35And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.G1161G1487G2309G3129G5100G1905G2398G435G1722G3624G1063G2076G149G1135G2980G1722G1577
36What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only?G2228G1831G3056G2316G1831G575G5216G2228G2658G1519G5209G3441
37If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.G1536G1380G1511G4396G2228G4152G1921G3754G3739G1125G5213G1526G1785G2962
38But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant.G1161G1536G50G50
39Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.G5620G80G2206G4395G2532G2967G3361G2980G1100
40Let all things be done decently and in order.G1096G3956G1096G2156G2532G2596G5010
